Hi,

There is a customed table. I want to delete its table maintenace generator.

Could anyone guide me how to do that. And once I delete it I need to create a Transaction code for the table so that its contents can be modified.

Thanks and regards,

Hi,

Go to the table maintaince generator by opening the table and going to utilites>table maintainenece generator>there at the top you would have a trash bin icod you can use that to delete the table maintianence generator.

secondly your requirment is to create a transaction code to maintain entries in the table. how do you want to maintain them using direct insert in a program for that you can write a program to directly insert entries

Also if you want the generated screen to open with the transaction you should create a transaction with parameter give parameter values like below:

VIEWNAME = TABLENAME

UPDATE = 'X'

Also you can use a program to call FM to maintain the table but the table should have a generated view VIEW_MAINTENANCE_CALL

Go to SE11, give the table name and click on change. Then Go to utilities--> Table

maintenance generator.

In the table maintenance generator screen, we should give Authorization Group,

Function Group name (Function Group name can be same as table name),

Maintenance type can be one step or two step, usually we will create with one

step. we should give maintenance screen number. After clicking on create button,

a table maintenance generator will be created.

To check it go to SM30 . In SM30, we find display, Maintain options.

We can view the table contents by choosing Display and we can create table

entries by choosing Maintain.

to delete.. go to change option and hit the delete button..

Hi,

Thnks. I got the answer for my first question. And I deleted table maintenance generator.

But how do I create Transaction code for a table without table maintenance generator. When I tried creating it it asks for Transaction. I cannot give SM30 bcoz table maintenance generator has been deleted.

hi,

Thats right you need to have the table maintainence generator to get the transaction code for teh normal screen to edit the table but since this is A custom table you can write a small program to directly update the table but if you want to maintain via the screen you need to have the maintainence generator.
